Re: Dan Brown

Post by elbenji »

Dan Brown when he wrote other books before 'The DaVinci Code' was not attracted to so much controversy. When he wrote that Jesus was a family man with children etc., it touched a raw nerve of millions of people who worship Jesus. And incidentally,he became famous or not so famous!. Then his books sold in millions. But the books which came later been stereo typed with symbols and mystery.
But they all were good read!!.

I love all the books in his series but I will have to go with Angels and Demons too. It was just literary perfection.

If I had to pick one, I guess it would be The DaVinci Code....however I love them all! And I absolutely can't wait for the new one, Origin, coming out this fall!

Da Vinci Code and the Deception Point. Some doesn't like the latter but i think it was wonderful!

Probably Angels & Demons, although I have not read anything by Dan Brown that I did not like. His books make great movies, too, with the understanding that the books are always better. ?

The Da Vinci Code still remains my favourite. I liked the twists. And the cryptic priest/ messenger/ protector and his weird fetishes. It intrigued me. And i loved how it blurred the lines of fiction and reality, i actually re examined my portrait of the last supper ro see if there was something i missed! So still, Da Vinci Code all the way.

I have read all of his books. And I just can't for the next one (Origins) to come out. I think Da Vinci Code was his best work. I also liked Digital Fortress and Deception Point.

The Da Vinci Code..It's a controversial and thought provoking book. The thrill and suspense does it for me.

I have to say Origin, because it is such a good book and it cover interesting themes, like the different religions and modern art.
